Chapter 65: Woven Bag

She stuffed the chili in her hand into the woven bag at her side, Wu Yue smiled and said: "It's nothing, I used to get chili in my eyes when I was little, but that chili wasn't this strong."

Several people turned to look at the red by the stream; this one obviously felt much better, occasionally taking the injured finger out of the stream water for a moment, then putting it back again when it felt uncomfortable.

Her other hand was free, twining the nearby vine for fun.

Wait a moment.

Vine!!!

Wu Yue quickly walked over, grabbed a vine beside Red, pulled hard, then her eyes brightened as she looked at Huashu following behind.

Grandma, this kind of vine is very sturdy; we can weave it into a bag to carry back the gathered wild vegetables.

Huashu's eyes lit up; she looked at Wu Yue's waist-worn woven bag: "Is it like the one you have at your waist?"

Wu Yue nodded: "My woven bag is made of dry grass, and it's not sturdy."

but the vine is tough, can bear more weight, so we can weave it larger and hold more.

Huashu was overjoyed, immediately called the females over, and repeated Wu Yue's idea: "I think Yue's method is feasible."

We'll first weave one to test; if it really works, we'll split into two groups, one responsible for gathering, the other for weaving.

If this bag succeeds, we will definitely be the team that brings back the most food on the public gathering day.

The females erupted, each looking at Wu Yue as if gazing at some treasure.

After cleaning the gathered vines, Wu Yue began teaching the females to weave simple bags; they need not be fancy, just able to hold the wild vegetables.

The first finished woven bag was large and deep.

Even the wild vegetables from the pelts of over a dozen grandmothers didn't fill one woven bag.

The females gazed at the still somewhat empty woven bag and fell silent.

Wu Yue also felt a bit embarrassed, wondering if the bag was too big—how long would it take to gather enough to fill it, and if it were too heavy it wouldn't be easy to carry back to the group.

Her worry was interrupted by the females' cheers; they hugged each other, and since they were in the forest, they could only suppress their voices and shout softly.

Yet the excitement contained in those low shouts was indescribable.

Huashu couldn't suppress the smile at the corners of her mouth: "Alright, alright, everyone settle down."

The females looked excitedly at Grandma Huashu, waiting for her instructions.

"Now, following my instructions, split into two groups: one group will weave bags here, the other will be responsible for gathering."

"The gathering group must speed up; today we will definitely be the team that brings back the most food!"

Watching the excited, busy figures of the females around her, Wu Yue twitched the corner of her mouth.

So she had just been worrying for nothing.

What they just showed was purely excitement.

"Yue, come over here."

Huashu smiled and waved at her.

Wu Yue put down the vine in her hand, went to Huashu's side, and said: "Grandma, what's the matter?"

Grandma Huashu laughed and patted her shoulder: "Yue, if we win today, it's entirely thanks to your contribution to the gathering team."

So this time when we return, I will give you a whole bag of wild vegetables, and in future gatherings you will also receive a share.

This is the appropriate reward for clanspeople who make great contributions.

Wu Yue blinked slightly: "I'm also a member of the gathering team; I don't need extra food."

But I have something I'd like to ask you to help with.
